Answer:

Mia scored 6 baskets Last Saturday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

Mia made score of baskets on Last Saturday = x

Mia made score of baskets yesterday = 3x (Mia made three times as many baskets in yesterday’s basketball game as she did last Saturday. three times means multiply 3 with score of Last Saturday baskets, i.e. x)

Total score of baskets = 24

We need to find How many baskets did Mia score last Saturday?

We can write:

<em>Total Score = Score on Last Saturday + Score yester</em>day

$24=x+3x$

Solving this equation we can find value of x:

$24=x+3x\\24=4x\\=>4x=24\\x=\frac{24}{4}\\x=6$

So, we get value of x = 6

Mia made score of baskets on Last Saturday = x = 6

Mia scored 6 baskets Last Saturday.

Answer:

A (-3, 2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint formula is m=(x1 + x2/2), (y1 + y2/2)

So add the xs: -5 + -1 = -6

And the ys: 1 + 4 = 5

Then divide them by 2

(-3, 2.5)

A ladder is leaning against a building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the ladder is 22 feetfeet less than th

ivann1987 [24]

So basically the ladder is creating a right triangle with the ground and the wall. Ladder is the hypotenuse (h), building = b, ground = g
b = h - 22 ft
g = 1010 ft
use Pythagorean Theorem to determine the length of h:
${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} \\ {h}^{2} = {(h - 22)}^{2} + {1010}^{2} \\ {h}^{2} = {h}^{2} - 44h + 484 + 1020100$
The h^2 terms cancel out to = 0
$0 = - 44h + 484 + 1020100 \\ 44h = 1020584 \\ 44h \div 44 = 1020584 \div 44 \\ h = 23195.1 \: feet$
